To a patient, the surgeon arrives at 9 am to work a miracle. But this journey begins at 7 am with the scrub nurse meticulously laying out IOLs and phaco tips, porters easing fears, floating nurses priming machines and medications, cleaners ensuring safety, and sterile technicians sterilizing each instrument past dusk. This film is a tribute to the unsung heroes of the cataract theatre.
